What is high-protein food?

What is yeast protein?

Yeast protein, as a new food ingredient, is a high-quality source of protein.

Yeast protein is obtained as a byproduct through alkaline and enzymatic treatment of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, followed by separation and purification processes. Due to its significant functional activity, it has attracted attention and research from many scholars.

It has high production efficiency, is environmentally friendly, and has high nutritional value. It can be used as a nutritional fortifier in bread.
